Oil is an important part of your engine’s health—it cools and lubricates the engine. Without clean oil, your engine won’t run properly and can easily overheat. Oil becomes dirty over time, so it must be changed regularly. That makes oil changes a regular expense and an important part of basic routine maintenance for all car owners.

Here are some factors (aside from Honda model) that can impact the cost of your oil change:

Service center vs. local repair shop: A Honda service center will be able to provide specialized care for your vehicle. However, the bill will likely be higher than at a Jiffy Lube or local mechanic.

Oil type: If your car needs synthetic oil can also significantly alter your costs. Synthetic oil lasts longer and keeps your engine running at peak performance. However, it costs more than conventional oil.

Oil filter: Your oil filter may need a replacement when your oil is changed. The cost of the filter and the effort involved in replacing it can drive up the price.

The above cost estimates factor in the cost of both parts and labor. This cost is the literal cost of the materials used, plus paying for the mechanic's time to do the oil change.

Are oil changes more expensive for a Honda?

Honda oil changes cost below the average of most car models and are much less expensive than oil changes on luxury vehicles. Jiffy Lube offers oil changes for as low as $30, although your car will need to take conventional oil for this price to be possible.
